How to Name Your Cat

Consider your cat’s personality and things that they like to do when you’re thinking of a name for them. You can name your cat after your favorite character or sports team. The main thing to remember is that this name will be something that you have to say for your cat’s lifetime, so choose one that you like! Something trendy and fun now may not be something that you like in a few years. It should be a name that you enjoy saying and is easy to pronounce. It’s best to keep it to three syllables too. Anything more than that, and your cat may not be able to decipher it among other noises.
